"The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit."
— Psalms 34:18

The most striking part of this verse is the phrase 'is nigh unto'—God doesn't watch from a distance; He draws near to you.
Usually, we hide our broken hearts. We pretend everything's fine, act strong. But God approaches the very pain we conceal. The greater your hurt, the closer He comes.
On sleepless nights, when you carry sorrows too heavy to share, God is there beside you. He may not fix it immediately, but His presence alone brings comfort.
🙏 Today's Prayer
O God, my heart is broken. I want to hide it, but before You I choose honesty. Lord who draws near to the wounded, come close to me today. Your presence is enough. I pray in Jesus' name. Amen.
